nice, but I would do it differently. I would paint the clear body for a part, and just leave the part with the most details under transparant. Like the engine compartment. Under the hood is just not enough details to be shown.

Looks good, but give us some big pics please!

I've been curious to see one of these built up. I've suspected since I saw the kit availible that it really wouldn't offer much in the way of view to the cars hidden mechanical components. No fault of the kit, just a feature of the CGT. Everything (especially the engine) is hidden from view by the composite chassis. If you really like to see the chassis (and it is a cool feature), this kit seems to offer good views of it (and the "opportunity" to do a bunch more CF decalling, if you're into that). But if you're hoping for a better view of the engine, this kit doesn't really do it. From what I can see, the hidden mechanicals that this kit reveals are limited to the front suspension dampers and bellcranks and the muffler/resonator.

Still, the clear body does give the model a cool effect. Maybe because it doesn't reveal very much (or that it reveals so much of the CF understructure), it looks surprisingly good. Whereas for an F1 car or an F50 I would do a 'painted in places, clear in others' body, if I built this kit I might very well leave it entirely clear. But I shudder to think of the CF decalling a build like tis would take....:uhoh:

I'm usually not a bi fan of clear-view models as it doesn't really suit most cars, but this one actually looks very very good like this. Probably has something to do with the shape, I don't know. Looks great!

It looks great, man, regardless of what people are saying about painting this and keeping that clear, I think the fully clear body looks stunning.

Cause of your post, I got mine last week, and am already wondering how many CF decals to order. lol

I like it even though there really isn't much detail. I am debating actually building my Brand New ENZO Full View kit too. Seems like it might be a collecters item someday?

Very nice!
Did you do anything to the mold lines on the body?
